In Your Eyes

(album: Under The Covers: Volume II - 2017)

Love, I get so lost sometimes
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
When I want to run away, I drive off in my car
But whichever way I go, I come back to the place you are

All my instincts, they return
And the grand façade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

In your eyes, the light, the heat
(In your eyes) I am complete
(In your eyes) I see the doorway
(In your eyes) Of a thousand churches
(In your eyes) The resolution
(In your eyes) Of all the fruitless searches
(In your eyes) Oh, I see the light and the heat
(In your eyes, the light, the heat)
(In your eyes) Oh, I want to be that complete
(In your eyes) (the light, the heat)
I want to touch the light, the heat I see in your eyes

Love, I don't like to see so much pain
So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to my time with you to keep me awake and alive

And all my instincts, they return
And the grand façade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

In your eyes, the light, the heat
(In your eyes) I am complete
(In your eyes) I see the doorway
(In your eyes) To a thousand churches
(In your eyes) The resolution
(In your eyes) Of all my fruitless searches
(In your eyes) Oh, I see the light and the heat
(In your eyes) (the light, the heat)
(In your eyes) Oh, I want to be that complete
(In your eyes) (the light, the heat)
I want to touch the light, the heat I see in your eyes

Accepting all I've done and said
I want to stand and stare again
Till there's nothing left and ooh
It remains there in your eyes
Whatever comes and goes
I will hear your silent cry
I will touch this tender wall
Till I know I'm home again
